"And if I'm not mistaken," said Blackthorne, peering into the
microscope, "we can narrow down our list of Mr. Kirkpatrick's
visitors to a dalmatian, a Sussex spaniel, a poodle, a
weimaraner..." -- Blackthorne looked up from the microscope -- "and
an orange-haired cat."
Samuel Blackthorne, a Yorkshire terrier, is a master of
observation and a genius of deductive reasoning who earns his
living by unraveling mysteries and solving crimes.
When Molly Kirkpatrick, a sleek greyhound, comes to Blackthorne
for help in finding her missing brother Patrick, a quiet
accountant, it seems like a simple enough case. But the trail leads
Blackthorne and his colleague, Smithfield, to the docks, the dog
track, casinos, and all kinds of roguish characters. They are
caught up in an increasingly convoluted web of deceit that involves
the highest-ranking officials in the city -- and a mysterious,
possibly deadly, cat with just one ear.
In this witty mystery Scott Emerson recounts the amazing
adventures of Mr. Samuel Blackthorne, as revealed in the notebooks
of Dr. Edward R. Smithfield.
